Serves 4 to 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

1 duck
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups soya sauce
1x5 cm piece ginger, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 T mustard seeds
3 whole star anise
300 g baby spinach

Method

Add all of the ingredients, except the spinach, to a large saucepan. Place over a medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer.

Cook, covered, for 40 minutes then remove from the heat and leave to settle for 30 minutes. Add the spinach 5 minutes before the end of the settling time in order to just wilt, and serve.

TASTE’s take:

Chicken also works beautifully with this delightful stock, the flavours of which gently infuse the meat during poaching.
